Inside High Noon

INSIDE HIGH NOON explores both the landmark 1952 film High Noon starring Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly, Lloyd Bridges and Katy Jurado, and the gripping story behind its troubled production. The documentary reveals how many of the studios passed on the project and major Hollywood actors turned it down before Gary Cooper accepted the lead role. When it was released, High Noon was seen by some as an attack on the House Un-American Activities Committee and its investigation into alleged communist influence in the Hollywood film industry.
